[Dagger311]

Meh.

 

[LJ12]

Might be a good performance car, but it looks rather dull, and will most likely fall apart after 100.000 miles. A meh from me. Don`t hate it, but I don`t like it eiher.

 

[Legro]

Not a Skoda or an Audi. Cool.

 

[MatskiMonk]

The embodiment of everything that is boring about Volkswagen and its subsidiary companies.

 

[Famine]

This is what sleep would look like if you could make it into a car.

 

[Wiegert]

Not a Skoda or Audi. Cool.

With those badge changes, I'd move my vote up one and down one respectfully.

My vote being uncool.

This is what sleep would look like if you could make it into a car.

VW unwittingly created the ultimate sleeper?

 

[AudiMan2011]

One of the dullest cars on the road. SU.

 

[Ken]

It's a mode of transportation. But not particularly good looking. Not particularly great numbers. Just meh.

 

[Liquid]

Automotive porridge.

Uncool

 

[Kent]

Reasonable car, great looking interior, decent power and performance as a daily eco car... If it weren't for reliability concerns regarding electrical gremlins and other rumored problems with US VWs I'd rate higher.

 

[Adamgp]

It's a meh-mobile.

Also, VW owners are some of the worst I have ever met.

SU.

 

[Dennisch]

Bleh.

 

[Slash]

Uncool.

 

[Tyger]

Like the Mazda 3 polled recently there is something about the styling that makes me think a really cool car is trying to get out, but it never quite makes it, from any angle. It has enough power and the usual other VW trappings but it's still very very meh.

 

[GranTurismo916]

I like it, but there's really no way this can be cool. It's too dull. Meh.

 

[Murcie_LP640]

Giant blend of Meh, made Uncool because it has a Volkswagen badge on the front of it.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

A "performance model" of one of the most boring cars available on the North American market. It's like VW targeted the Corolla or something. While the basic US Jetta is an invisibility cloak on four wheels, the waste of a solid powetrain that the GLI represents knocks it to an Uncool.

 

[Sage Ages]

The future of beige.

 

[All Your Base]

A point A to B car. Meh.

 

[JMoney]

Performance-based boring car, manual AND semi-automatic transmission options. Also German.

Cool.

 

[motortrend]

"German" corolla. Uncool.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

The perfomances themselves don't look too bad, but I simply don't get why people would buy a Jetta in the first place. It seems to me that this car would be bought by desperate businessmen that couldn't stretch their money to buy a BMW 3-series and\or work for lesser companies. Also, it doesn't look exciting, not at all.

I'm willing to give this a meh, but not much more than that.

 

[Tornado]

Nothing says "cool" like mediocrity.

 

[mustafur]

Meh, doesn't even get a current GTI engine.

 

[synchromesh]

At first I was like, "meh, good but bland car with not much uniqueness".

6-speed manual​

Bumped it up to cool.​

 

[Joey D]

Uncool. I like them but they are pretty dreary.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Ummm..

No.

 

[mustafur]

At first I was like, "meh, good but bland car with not much uniqueness".

Bumped it up to cool.​

That makes it cool?

Basically everycar in this segment offers manual.

Here in America, manuals on cars like these are a rare sight.
